Item type:Publication, EFFECTS OF RAMADAN FASTING ON SOME BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS(Faculty of Medicine, University Ss. Cyril and Methodius in Skopje, 2021); ; ; Petrushevska-Stanojevska, ElenaIntroduction: Holy month Ramadan lasts for about 29-30 days. It is mandatory for all adult individuals of the Islamic faith to fast during the holy month of Ramadan. During this period, healthy Muslims do not eat or drink (i.e., total abstinence from food and fluids) and refrain from tobacco, daily from pre-dawn until dusk. Materials and Methods: The present study included healthy adult male and female Muslim volunteers from different towns in the Republic of North Macedonia. The number of subjects in the study was 195. Blood samples from all subjects were collected twice during the study - once 2-3 days prior to the beginning of Ramadan and then again, the last day of Ramadan fasting. The following biochemical parameters were taken into consideration: total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, glucose, insulin, total proteins, albumin, total and direct bilirubin, urea, creatinine and uric acid. Results: It was observed that compared to pre-fasting levels, total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) were significantly decreased (P=0.000) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level had significantly increased (P=0.000); total proteins were significantly increased (P=0.000); albumins were significantly increased (P=0.004); urea was significantly increased (P=0.004); total and direct bilirubin were significantly increased (P=0.000), glucose was significantly increased (P=0.000); there was no change in insulin levels (P<0.1) Conclusion: This study showed that Ramadan fasting has an effect on biochemical parameters. We can conclude that reduction in total cholesterol and triglycerides along with a rise in levels of HDL-C have beneficial effects on lipid profile post-Ramadan fasting period. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Prevention of musculoskeletal disorders as occupational health problem among dental professionals(Македонско лекарско друштво = Macedonian medical association, 2024-11-02); Objective: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) have been identified as a significant occupational health problem among dental professionals. MSDs can be defined as any injury to the human support system, including the bones, cartilage, muscles, ligaments, tendons, blood vessels, nerves due to exposure to hazards at the workplace. For dental professionals they occur commonly in the neck, shoulder, lower back and wrists. They are significant work-related occupational health problem. Sufferers of MSDs may experience numbness, tingling, pain, decreased strength or swelling of the affected area. Ergonomics helps in designing jobs, equipment and workplaces to fit dental workers in prevention of MSD. The aims of the study are to define the significant risk factors to dental professionals’ health which lead to injuries and prevention of MSDs as occupational health problem. Material and methods: Risk factors of MSDs with specific reference to dentistry include stress, poor flexibility, improper positioning, infrequent breaks, repetitive movements, weak postural muscles, prolonged awkward postures and improper adjustment of equipment. This article includes MSDs and the signs, symptoms and risk factors and the influence of the ergonomics in prevention of these types of injuries Some authors have found symptoms of discomfort for dental workers occurred in the wrist/hands (69.5%), neck (68.5%), upper back (67.4%), low back (56.8%) and shoulders (60.0%). Results: Major health problems for dental professionals are musculoskeletal pain, especially back pain. Early symptoms of MSDs include pan, swelling, tenderness, numbness and loss of strength. Preventive measures for MSD are proper sitting posture, ergonomic equipment such as chairs, arm rests, workstation layout, dentist micro breaks, magnification systems and others. Conclusion: Ergonomic equipment, regular exercises, relaxation techniques and good scheduling assure high productivity, avoidance of illnesses and injuries and reduce the possible MSDs and increase productivity of dental professionals. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Illuminating the path to ISO 15189 accreditation: a view from the Republic of North Macedonia(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2019-10); ; ; ; Kostovska, IrenaIn the Republic of North Macedonia, the work of the diagnostic medical laboratories is regulated by the Law of Health Care. There is an urgent need for better development of an evidence-based, scientific, and sustainable national strategy for the improvement of health laboratory service. Clear indicators of improvement have to be established. A key indicator should be the number of laboratories that have achieved and can maintain accreditation. The Macedonian Society of Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine (MSMBLM) recommends that the quality system established meets the requirements of the International Standard for medical laboratories (‘Medical laboratories: Requirements for quality and competence [EN ISO 15189:2012]. The accreditation of Macedonian medical laboratories is not mandatory; the decision for accreditation is voluntary. So far, nine medical laboratories have been accredited according the MKS EN ISO 15189:2013. Four of them are public sector laboratories. The small number of accredited laboratories could be the result of the shortage of financial resources, poor government attention to laboratory service, the shortage of qualified personnel and/or the lack of a national laboratory policy. The experiences of laboratory professionals from accredited laboratories, who have a high level of knowledge, skills, and competence, are crucially important to the process of developing a competent laboratory service within the national health system. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
